You'll need a Playdate (or Playdate Simulator) to use this app. You can get the app onto your system by sideloading through usual means. (Not sure how to do that?)

This is sooo nice and a perfect upgrade for when my playdate is acting as my desktop clock (every day).  The weather and air quality are always dynamic here in California's central valley so I'm always checking these things! 

happy to hear you're enjoying it! if there's any other data you'd like to see, let me know — i have access to a surprising amount of stuff with this API, so i can see what's available :)
